Okay grandpa, now tell us about your magic “t9” and not even looking at your phone while we put you to bed.
(Jk I too am old and I miss physical buttons and when autocomplete didn’t stop you from swearing or rewrite your text 3 words later so it looks like you’re having a stroke)

Back in my kid days, SMS was too expensive to just text around. If you had a prepaid card, the provider would offer to send one asking for a callback if you ran out of balance. We would use these to communicate, like after school one callback SMS was “yeah I’m coming to hang out” two was “no time today, sorry”.
The upside is that when 3rd party messengers and wifi became a thing, everyone ditched SMS, so the green bubble / blue bubble Apple insanity is a non-starter since nobody uses iMessage anyway. Also no peer pressure to buy iPhones from it.
We also used to send memes to each other by infra port, we would hide the phones in someone’s desk next to each other, one meme transfer took a whole class.

I hated T9 T-T With a passion. Always had disabled autocomplete on physical - typed faster without it. I mean, how hard it is to memorise simple layout anyway? Sometimes muscle memory still kicks in and find myself typing on typical physical number keyboard fast, then get surprised I did it and then I cannot do it again at all xD

Flex t9? Shit was flawless.

I would rather have my good friend bang my spouse while drunk, than drive drunk.

I’ve had phones that regularly would say not delivered and the message definitely did.

I know these are generally fake, but they always grind my gears a bit. Literally just screenshot the full message with the “not delivered” part and resend the screenshot until it goes through.
HonoraryMancunian@lemmy.world 1 day ago
I mean what would make even more sense would be to not split up the message so randomly, but then again that would spoil the joke

SMS has a character limit, although most modern phones that still use SMS will at least give you a 3/3 thing and send all three texts at once.

Had some android phones that wouldn’t even notify you if your message didn’t send for like 45 minutes.

Kinda interesting to hear about this stuff as someone who grew up when everyone was already on WhatsApp (at least here in Germany)

But that‘s literally what this is: A screenshot. What you are describing might be exactly how it transpired.
